About Me

My Photo
I worked as a tour guide for two summers at the Umpqua River Lighthouse in Oregon. This opportunity enabled me to learn more about this lighthouse than any of the others I've seen. Although I have personally visited 302 lighthouses in the United States and three Provinces in Canada, the Umpqua River Lighthouse has special meaning for me.

Michigan - Cheboygan Crib Lighthouse

The Cheboygan Crib Lighthouse is located at Cheboygan, MI by Lake Huron. It was built in 1884 to guard the entrance to the Cheboygan River. It is made of cast iron and stands forty feet tall. In 1986 the Coast Guard gave the light to the City of Cheboygan, and it was later relocated on shore. At the time of my visit in 1998 the lighthouse sat in Gordon Turner Park near the river.
